You're feeling emotionally calm and positive

00:00:11

and are clear on the subject and on the three options you intend to suggest.

00:00:16

We will see how to set up this meeting from

00:00:19

requesting an appointment to choosing the place and time,

00:00:22

when to meet.

00:00:24

As soon as possible with the essential condition that our emotions are

00:00:28

calmed down and that the adult in us is back in control,

00:00:33

if the child in us is still under the influence of uncontrolled anger,

00:00:37

excessive fear,

00:00:37

or sadness,

00:00:38

the meeting will be much more perilous and Prone to fight or flight situations.

00:00:44

Choose a time where you're least tired,

00:00:47

preferably in the morning and at the beginning of the week.

00:00:51

Plan the time according to the issue,

00:00:53

not 5 minutes at the end of a meeting

00:00:56

if the issue is important.

00:00:58

Set a real appointment.

00:01:00

Why not a whole hour to be sure everything has been fully expressed?

00:01:05

There's nothing worse than having unexpressed

00:01:07

thoughts still running through our heads.

00:01:10

And above all,

00:01:11

keep a flexible agenda after the scheduled

00:01:14

appointment to extend the discussion if necessary.

00:01:17

Where should we meet

00:01:19

in a neutral place,

00:01:21

avoid each other's offices.

00:01:23

Choose a confidential so that no one can hear or disturb you

00:01:27

and comfortable spot.

00:01:29

If possible,

00:01:30

avoid being in a face to face position as this reinforces the opposition.

00:01:35

Instead,

00:01:36

sit on two sides of the table or,

00:01:38

better still,

00:01:39

facing the same direction.

00:01:41

Why not have lunch or sit on a bench in the sun?

00:01:45

Last question you want to arrange a meeting to

00:01:48

discuss a contentious issue with the other person.

00:01:51

How to request a meeting with them.

00:01:53

One

00:01:54

briefly recall the facts.

00:01:57

Danny,

00:01:58

this morning we had a disagreement,

00:02:00

a discord,

00:02:01

tension about

00:02:03

to

00:02:04

propose a meeting.

00:02:05

I suggest that we meet and take the time to exchange our perceptions and solutions.

00:02:12

3,

00:02:13

announce the short and long term benefits of the discussion for you,

00:02:18

the team,

00:02:19

the client.

00:02:20

So that we can,

00:02:22

so that the client can

00:02:24

4,

00:02:25

finalize your request.

00:02:27

Would it be convenient for you to meet on Tuesday at

00:02:30

10 a.m. at such a place to discuss the issue?

00:02:34

5,

00:02:35

remain open to discussion without getting any

00:02:38

further into the subject of the conflict.

00:02:41

If the person wants to discuss the issue right away,

00:02:45

say that the topic is important,

00:02:47

that this is not the right time and place to talk about it.

00:02:51

Get your appointment.

00:02:53

The person you're talking to may be surprised by your request.

00:02:57

If you're asking for this meeting because you feel that the tension you're

00:03:00

feeling on the issue is worth taking the time to untangle it.

00:03:05

Then stand your ground,

00:03:06

get your appointment.

00:03:08

Respect yourself,

00:03:10

respect your feelings.

00:03:12

Give yourself an opportunity to express yourself with the right timing and space.

00:03:17

Your interlocutor might beat around the bush to get

00:03:21

out of it when you suggest this formal meeting.

00:03:24

Stay firm on your need to meet.

00:03:27

Perhaps they will want to downplay the facts by saying that

00:03:30

they do not deserve to be discussed in a meeting.

00:03:33

Remind them that this meeting is important to you.

00:03:37

They may want to settle a dispute immediately by suggesting a solution on the spot.

00:03:43

Don't fall for their gains.

00:03:45

Tell them that you don't have time right now

00:03:47

to fully listen and share your point of view,

00:03:51

that you want to think things through and come up with constructive solutions.

00:03:58

Maintain your meeting proposal.

00:04:01

Some time apart is necessary for everyone to express themselves.

00:04:06

The other person also needs to prepare for the meeting,

00:04:10

no matter what they think.

00:04:12

Perhaps they will laugh slightly at this impromptu request.

00:04:15

Don't let their reaction bother you.

00:04:17

It's quite natural.

00:04:19

It's a way of defending themselves.

00:04:22

Stand your ground until you schedule a meeting.

00:04:26

A dispute cannot be resolved across two doors.

00:04:30

Arrranging a conflict management meeting is therefore a first step,

00:04:35

essential.

00:04:37

Start on the right basis by choosing the right time,

00:04:41

the right place,

00:04:42

and by suggesting a meeting in an open and positive way

00:04:47

until you get your appointment.
